- A ColdFusion podcast

In today's show we first talk about Dave's new twitter quest.  He is going to attempt to get an a-list celebrity to follow him (good luck).  We then talk about the APRA's decision to move away from Commonspot to Sharepoint.  We also discuss a blog post from Adam Lehman about his leaving the OpenCFML Advisory Committee.  Somewhere in the show we digress and turn into entertainment reporters.  We also talk about something that came up from last weeks show where Dave talks about the potential of splitting Coldfusion into two pieces, UI and an engine.  At one point in the show Dave falls into a cave and his audio starts to echo.  We were unable to correct it but we did try.

 

UPDATE:  Since the recording of this show there have been some more blog posts from other members of the CFML Advisory Committee.  Obviously these posts were not available at the time of this recording.  The comments on this show are directly related to the blog post from Adam.  We will be discussing this topic further in our next show.

   Jul 28, 2010 at 10:39 PM I have to disagree with one point "If your a start up and all you have is blood sweat and tears, ColdFusion is not for you" That's not right as you have 2 free OpenSource languages Railo and OpenBD. I've built sites with Railo where there was no budget even if to move to ACF later. I have also built sites in ColdFusion and moved them to Railo due to cost of hosting or the need to move the server internally. You know I'm a huge fan of CFML which includes both Adobe ColdFusion and Railo. I use ACF on a daily basis and will continue to do so for the foreseeable future. We can afford ACF and require some of the features but if we could not afford it we'd push forward with cfml and move to Railo.

   May 12, 2011 at 9:20 PM Sorry this is a bit back, I am just catching up and thought to point this out. There is a product called Cartweaver. It is a very robust ecommerce site template and pretty much lets you drag drop and then have a designer go and give you a skin(well maybe not quite that simple, but close). It is written in two flavors, php and cfml, but the cfml from what I have seen and worked with is easier to work with.
